Changing the Junk Removal Industry for Good!

Junk hauling, removal and recycling is not a new industry, but it is one that can make a difference to the community.

Led by John Nicholby and Kristine Nicholby, Founders of YYC Junk Removal, the junk removal industry is seeing how one person’s junk, can truly be another person’s treasure!

Many of the things we find that are still in good condition go to help people in need, either in Calgary or in Africa. 

John Nicholby, Founder / Owner

After gaining solid experience in the junk hauling business, John Nicholby was simply tired of taking Calgary’s good quality junk to the dump. So, he started YYC Junk Removal to help Calgarians get rid of their unwanted junk…and recycle / re-home them all at the same time. But, enough of the touchy feely, here’s a few fun tidbits about John:  

• Originally from the Sunshine Coast, BC. but doesn’t like yam fries.
• Sometimes has trouble comprehending -30^◦C weather…clearly not a born and raised Albertan.
• Worked in the Canadian Oil Sands prior to working in the junk hauling and recycling biz.
• Was surprised to discover that he enjoys sorting through junk…it’s like a treasure hunt everyday!

Kristine Nicholby, Co-Founder

Kristine brings a unique insight into YYC Junk Removal. As John’s partner, Kristine runs the online side of the company, Apart from YYC Junk, she is quite the unique gal herself:  

• Born and raised Calgarian, thus begins to wither without the bright winter sunlight.
• Is an avid twicher (bird watcher) with a fondness for chickadees and nuthatches.
• Has a background in biology, nutrition and accounting.
• Unique favourite vacation spot is the Albania Riviera.
